After traveling to ancient times, I became a superb shrew

Chapter 50

There is a harvest in the field, so naturally there is no need to sell the child, but if there is no harvest, no grain will enter the warehouse for the next half a year, and the only way out is to sell the child.

And at that time, they will never be the only ones selling their children!
Gu Qing led Zhao Daya to her yard, and the four Tong family members washed the clothes that needed to be washed last night and hung them up to dry.

She pulled Daya to sit down: "If your mother really wants to sell you, no matter what I say, she will take you to the town."

Da Ya wiped away her tears and remained silent.

Gu Qing sighed, although Aunt Zhao loved children, but in this day and age, no one wants boys, the Zhao family has three daughters and one son, the eldest daughter bears the most, and Dahua is the most miserable child in the Zhao family.

"Eat something first, then work." Gu Qing stood up and walked to the kitchen. Now there are only her and Gu Yu Gu Nuo in the house, so Gu Qing can only do it by himself.

Now that her family has made money collecting mushrooms, everyone knows that a big house is about to be built. There is no need for her to hide it. She just took out flour and eggs, made a large plate of egg pancakes, and boiled some millet porridge .

While Gu Qing was making breakfast, Gu Yu came over.

She grabbed Gu Qing's sleeve, blinked her big eyes and asked, "Sister, is there really someone who wants to buy me for two taels of silver?"

This is not a nonsense made up by Gu Qing. After the death of his parents the year before last, there were indeed people from the next village who had no households to buy their daughters for retirement. They wanted to give half a tael of silver to Gu Yu to take care of them for retirement. Yuanshen was a little tempted, but that The family members were scolded away by Mrs. Gu's full firepower, so they didn't mention it again.

But if the famine becomes more and more serious, Yuanshen might really sell Gu Yu...

Gu Qing pinched the little guy's face: "So, when you grow up, you can't just forget about your elder sister when you have a husband and son-in-law."

Gu Yu nodded vigorously: "I will be filial to my elder sister for the rest of my life. In the future, I will also study hard and come back to honor my ancestors with a champion."

Gu Qing couldn't help laughing.

The smell soon came from the kitchen, and the whole family sat down around the table, and Zhao Daya was also pushed to sit down, with a bowl of millet porridge in front of him and several egg pancakes in the middle of the table.

"Sister Gu, this won't work..."

Zhao Daya waved her hands again and again. Gu Qing just gave their family a bag of food, but she didn't cook anything. How can she eat a bowl of millet porridge for nothing.

In previous years, when the weather was good and the weather was good, she couldn't even eat such good millet porridge during the Chinese New Year, let alone the white flour egg pancakes in the middle...

The house is filled with fragrance.

Gu Qing and the three of them ate very deliciously. Gu Yu drank up a large bowl of millet porridge, and ate a piece of egg pancake with his mouth full of greasy food.

Zhao Daya was astonished.

Her mother used to say that the next door's life was miserable, and that Gu Yu couldn't get enough to eat every day. Is this the appearance of not getting enough to eat?
How does she feel that their family's life is really miserable? ?
"Big girl, hurry up and eat." Gu Qing said, "There will be work for you later."

Eating so many things early in the morning is not an easy task.

After Zhao Daya experienced a fierce psychological struggle, she finally succumbed to the delicious food and drank a bowl of millet porridge with her head down.

"Here!" Gu Yu stuffed an egg pancake for her, "Big sister used to secretly stuff me with corn bread, now I can finally stuff you too!"

Zhao Daya actually didn't have much to eat herself, and she had to leave all the delicious food at home to her younger sister, but sometimes Gu Yu was so pitiful, standing under the big tree between the two families, staring at her, drooling, and slamming her clothes It was all wet, so she had to break off a little bit of cornbread and stuff it in.

Unexpectedly, Gu Yu would remember her unintentional actions.

After breakfast, the busy day began again. Gu Qing asked Da Ya to stay and help Gu Yu drive the ducks out, and then went to dig wild vegetables on the ridge of the field. After digging, they could go back at noon.

Zhao Daya was full of question marks.

That bag of grain is enough for her family to feed for half a month, so let her dig wild vegetables?
Didn't Gu Nuo also dig wild vegetables, why did he ask her for it?

How does she feel that Sister Gu is just here to help her?
Gu Qing waited for the little brother from the mall to come to collect the mushrooms.

At noon, Gu Nuo came back with a black puppy in his arms. The puppy jumped on the ground as soon as it barked, hugging Gu Qing's trouser legs and kept acting like a baby.

Gu Nuo ran over: "Sister, this is a puppy I picked up on the side of the road. I named it Xiao Hei, okay?"

Gu Yu shook his head: "Xiao Hei sounds too weak, call him Da Hei."

Gu Nuo frowned and said: "Well, then listen to the second sister, and I will call you Dahei from now on."

Gu Qing: "..."

So this is the origin of the name of the pastoral dog Rhubarb?

She bent down to pick up the puppy. This dog should be a month old, but it is very thin, with bones all over its body. Thinking about it, the income is so little, and no one has anything to eat. How can it be able to support it? a beast.

But since he came to their house, he will be a member of the family from now on, and Dahei will eat whatever they eat.

Gu Qing asked Gu Nuo to go to the house to bring out two eggs. She took the eggs to the house of Gu Dongmei, the only family in the village who raised dogs. Aunt Gu was making lunch. Throw in the noodles, then stir the wild vegetables, there is a lot of water, and there are too many wild vegetables, the paste is almost invisible, and there is no salt.

On the ground was a skinny bitch running around with a khaki puppy, who was also very thin and looked malnourished.

"Miss Gu, why are you here?"

Zhao Dongmei stopped what she was doing and walked out.

Gu Qing stuffed two eggs over: "My Nuonuo picked up your puppy on the side of the road and took it home. I don't know how many copper coins a puppy costs. Is it okay to give two eggs?"

"You're too polite, a bastard is worthless." Gu Dongmei quickly declined, "That bastard has no meat on him, and he can't live for a few days. I don't want to throw it on the mountain to feed the wolves. You collect mushrooms and let our family earn money. Those money, even if you want this big dog, I will take you to your house for free. Not to mention that the puppy was picked up by Nuonuo, how can I ask for your eggs. My house is ready to eat, so go back quickly , let's go!"

Gu Dongmei pushed Gu Qing directly out of the courtyard gate.

Gu Qing looked at the two undelivered eggs in her hand, and sighed helplessly.

As the saying goes, people are poor and short-sighted. Although Gu Dongmei is poor, she never greedy for what others eat. Such a person with backbone deserves her admiration.

As soon as she goes.

Gu Dongmei looked at the children in the family and said: "This bitch has never had a few sips of milk since he was born, so he probably won't live for a few days. If I accept her eggs, when the bitch dies, she won't have to ask me to pay for her life." , I can't forget the shrew she used to mess around with, and now she's making money again, our family can't afford to mess with her."
